Hi Carl, > 1101 (and 1102-1104) is the video stream, you have to add the PMT: > If 999 would be PMT, the line should be > "...HIERARCHY_AUTO:1101+999:1201.." How do you go about doing a DVB scan that gives the valid PMT Ids? The output I get [for one example channel] with a straight w_scan is: - RTE 1:738000:I999B8C23D23M64T8G8Y0:T:27500:11101+1101:1201=gle:1301:0:1101:12801:1001:0 > > Please note that top-posting is considered offensive on this mailing > list! Noted. I've been using mailing lists for ~ 14 years and never been caught on this. I've checked RFC 1855 and I don't see anything on top posting. However I admit that I haven't read any docs or welcome stuff on the mplayer-users mailing list. Anyway - thanks very much for the help. I've just built the latest mplayer from SVN snapshot (without the DIY modification) - I'm keen to see if I can view the h264 DVB transmission by modifying channels.conf thanks very much for the help, Derek -- Derek C In Ireland _______________________________________________ MPlayer-users mailing list MPlayer-users@xxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/mplayer-users
